Johnny Depp

Вiography
Actor, director, musician. Born John Christopher
Depp II in Owensboro, Kentucky, on June 9, 1963.
Raised in Florida, Depp dropped out of school at
age 17 in hopes of becoming a rock musician. He
fronted a series of garage bands, including The
Kids, which was once opened for Iggy Pop.
Depp got into acting after a visit to LA with
his former wife, who introduced him to actor
Nicolas Cage. He made his film debut in
1984's A Nightmare on Elm Street. In 1987, he
leapt into stardom when he replaced Jeff
Yagher in the role of undercover cop Tommy
Hanson in the popular Canadian-filmed TV
series 21 Jump Street. In 1990, after numerous
roles in teen films, Depp received an
opportunity to exhibit his exhausting
versatility in the title role of Tim Burton's
fantasy Edward Scissorhands.
Following the film's success, Depp carved a niche for himself as a serious,
somewhat dark, idiosyncratic performer, consistently selecting roles that
surprise critics and audiences alike. He continued to gain critical acclaim
and increasing popularity for his work, most notably in 1993's Benny &
Joon and in the title role of What's Eating Gilbert Grape in 1993, which
cast him as a young man dissatisfied with the confines of his small-town
life. In 1994, he re-teamed with Burton in the lead role of Ed Wood.
